An authoritative new exploration of the latest theoretical and applied advances in Linear Parameter-Varying systems

In Linear Parameter-Varying Control: Theory and Application to Automotive Systems, distinguished researcher Dr. Olivier Sename delivers a comprehensive and up-to-date discussion of the theoretical aspects and real applications of Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) control, with a strong focus on systems theory and in real automotive systems. The author covers the primary methods used to model, control, and analyze LPV systems, and illustrates how to model those systems using examples.

This book covers developing adaptive LPV control using the provided recipes as guides and contextual aids as well as discovering effective methods to design LPV controllers that have already been validated through real applications.

Readers will also find:

Perfect for researchers and students with an interest in vehicle dynamics, Linear Parameter-Varying Control will also benefit postgraduate and PhD students, control engineers, and academics teaching control theory and applications courses.

This book mostly results from a selection of papers presented during the 11th IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Workshop on Time-Delay Systems, which took place in Grenoble, France, February 4 - 6, 2013.  During this event, 37 papers were presented. Taking into account the reviewers'' evaluation and the papers'' presentation the best papers have been selected and collected into the present volume. The authors of 13 selected papers were invited to participate to this book and provided a more detailed and improved version of the conference paper. To enrich the book, three more chapters have been included from specialists on time-delay systems who presented their work during the 52nd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, which held in December 10 - 13, 2013, at Florence, Italy. The content of the book is divided into four main parts as follows: Modeling, Stability analysis, Stabilization and control, and Input-delay systems. Focusing on various topics of time-delay systems, this book will be interesting for researchers and graduate students working on control and system theory.

Vehicles are complex systems (non-linear, multi-variable) where the abundance of embedded controllers should ensure better security. This book aims at emphasizing the interest and potential of Linear Parameter Varying methods within the framework of vehicle dynamics, e.g. proposed control-oriented model, complex enough to handle some system non linearities but still simple for control or observer design, take into account the adaptability of the vehicle''s response to driving situations, to the driver request and/or to the road sollicitations, manage interactions between various actuators to optimize the dynamic behavior of vehicles.

This book results from the 32th International Summer School in Automatic that held in Grenoble, France, in September 2011, where recent methods (based on robust control and LPV technics), then applied to the control of vehicle dynamics, have been presented. After some theoretical background and a view on some recent works on LPV approaches (for modelling, analysis, control, observation and diagnosis), the main emphasis is put on road vehicles but some illustrations are concerned with railway, aerospace and underwater vehicles. The main objective of the book is to demonstrate the value of this approach for controlling the dynamic behavior of vehicles.

It presents, in a rm way, background and new results on LPV methods and their application to vehicle dynamics.

This volume consists of selected peer reviewed papers from the 10th International Conference on Mechatronics and Control Engineering (ICMCE 2021) discussing latest advances in mechanical engineering and dynamic analysis, sensor technology and application, mechanical design and system modelling, control system and engineering, robot design and control engineering, development and performance analysis of functional materials. Additional themes include methodologies, algorithms, applications and knowledge discovery in mechatronics and control engineering. This volume will prove a valuable resource for those in academia and industry.
